Introduction

Several strategies are now on going to be able to use YAIM in EMI to configure gLite services. PTs are adopting different solutions. It's important to decide on a common strategy that will be able to find a solution for the following issues:

YAIM code maintenance for gLite vs EMI

1. HEAD and branch maintenance OR
2. Use of different set of variables for EMI?

Solution adopted now is 1,. with "org.glite.yaim.core_branch_glite" the branch for gLite

Variables that are no longer needed or have to be redefined:

Variable	gLite	EMI	comments
INSTALL_ROOT	INSTALL_ROOT=/opt	INSTALL_ROOT=/usr
GLITE_LOCATION_*	GLITE_LOCATION = ${INSTALL_ROOT}/glite GLITE_LOCATION=\ ${GLITE_LOCATION:-${INSTALL_ROOT}/glite} GLITE_LOCATION_VAR=\ ${GLITE_LOCATION_VAR:-${GLITE_LOCATION}/var} GLITE_LOCATION_LOG=\ ${GLITE_LOCATION_LOG:-${GLITE_LOCATION}/var/log} GLITE_LOCATION_TMP=\ ${GLITE_LOCATION_TMP:-${GLITE_LOCATION}/tmp}	GLITE_LOCATION=/usr GLITE_LOCATION_VAR=/var GLITE_LOCATION_LOG=/var/log GLITE_LOCATION_TMP=/tmp GLITE_LOCATION_ETC=/etc	watch out for ${GLITE_LOCATION}/etc ⇒ /etc use ${GLITE_LOCATION_ETC} instead
GLOBUS_LOCATION	GLOBUS_LOCATION=\ ${GLOBUS_LOCATION:-${INSTALL_ROOT}/globus}	-	not to be set for EMI (some node types may need to set it, e.g. WMS)
LCG_LOCATION	LCG_LOCATION = ${INSTALL_ROOT}/lcg LCG_LOCATION=\ ${LCG_LOCATION:-${INSTALL_ROOT}/lcg}	LCG_LOCATION=/usr	watch out for ${LCG_LOCATION}/etc ⇒ /etc
EDG_LOCATION	EDG_LOCATION=$INSTALL_ROOT/edg	needed??
GRID_ENV_LOCATION	GRID_ENV_LOCATION=\ ${GRID_ENV_LOCATION:-${INSTALL_ROOT}/glite/etc/profile.d}	GRID_ENV_LOCATION=/usr/libexec
GPT_*	GPT_LOCATION=\ ${GPT_LOCATION:-${INSTALL_ROOT}/gpt} GPT_POST=${GPT_LOCATION}/sbin/gpt-postinstall	needed??
SAGA_*	SAGA_LOCATION=/usr/local JAVA_SAGA_LOCATION=/usr/local	needed??

Comments:

Other/New Variable	Suggested Value	Reason	Who
YAIM_ROOT	/opt/	to be used for building yaim installation path	Cristina
GLITE_LOCATION_ETC	/etc/	to be used by yaim-modules	Cristina
